Welcome to eWillys.com, a website for vintage jeep enthusiasts. I update this website nearly every day with jeep deals, jeep history, interesting reader projects, jeep related info, and more.
These quick searches can help you find things on eBay. People list in the wrong categories all the time, so don't be surprised to see brochures in the parts area for example.
The links to posts below show jeeps grouped by models, condition, and other ways. Some of these jeeps are for sale and others have been sold. If you are unsure whether a vehicle is still for sale or not, email me at d [at] ewillys.com for more info.
There are plenty of interesting, unusual, historic and surprising stories related to Jeeps and their owners. In addition, some of these features have nothing to do with jeeps. This link will display all featured stories starting from the latest.
Looking for parts and not sure where to go? There are a variety of large and small new and used parts sellers both online and offline.
Importantly, the allure of buying a project jeep can be romantic. The reality of restoring a jeep can be quite different, expensive and overwhelming without the right tools and resources. So, tread carefully when purchasing a "project". If you have any concerns about buying a vintage jeep, or run across a scam, feel free to contact me for help, comments or concerns .
UPDATE: Still Available.

Might have an engine issue.
“51 Willys jeep for sale. Body, frame and interior in great shape. Original drivetrain with flathead 4 and t90 3speed. Engine will need work. Has no compression so believe rings are needed. Ran when I got it but weak. Drove it for a couple times and got worse. Was going to make into a river jeep but in too good of shape for me to do that. Brakes and turn signals work. Guy I bought it from drove it to work everyday. Still has foot start on floor. I think I have a bikini top for it. Will check for sure. Asking $3500. Clear title”

UPDATE: Price dropped to $4300.

“Selling my toy to fund another project, great running little Jeep.
Engine is the Buick dauntless V6, freshly rebuilt Saginaw 4 speed transmission, and a Dana 18 transfer case.
All new wiring, new seats, new fuel tank (mounted in back), new starter, newer tires, new exhaust, newer top w/ doors, new gauges, new HEI distributor, rebuilt Edlebrock carb, countless other new parts.
Body is fiberglass and so are the fenders and grill. The windshield and hood are steel.
Currently it needs a new front output bearing on the transfer case, which I have ordered. It is noisy and causing some leak from the transfer case. Might have it replaced this week yet.
Engine compression is strong, brakes are great, all things function with the exception of the speedometer (I purchased a new drive gear to be installed), and the fuel gauge simply because I have must have it wired wrong.
It is not a show quality Jeep, but is very clean and reliable.
Titled as a 1962 Jeep. Clean and clear title on hand. ”

http://eauclaire.craigslist.org/cto/5669572308.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $3500.
It’s a project. It’s listed as a 3A, but has a 2A body and windshield. The chassis appears to be 3A.
“So, I’ve decide to sell all of my toys and projects. The last thing on my list is my 1950 Willys CJ3A. I own two businesses, go to school full time and work a part time job. I have zero time to put into any projects. The Jeep is tore completely apart and ready to be refinished and reassembled so a trailer and truck will be needed to pick it up. I have $3500 invested so far, but will entertain reasonable offers.
The good:
The body is in decent shape, I have new steel to put into it and new pre-bent floor pans
The frame is good, there are no cracks around the horns, just small amount if recent surface rust
I have the fabled clean title, in hand, and will also do a bill of sale
Motor is not seized and I have a video of me driving it before the teardown
Has the rear seat
Has a Cj2a split window windshield
The bad:
This is not a matching numbers jeep and the data tags were missing when I bought it
It’s in 1000 pieces.
Everything needs wire wheeling, sanding or sandblasting
All suspension parts were shot, rusted and unusable.

http://detroit.craigslist.org/wyn/cto/5668370603.html
UPDATE: **SOLD** Was $5950.
Looks solid, but needs a little work to be complete.
“I’m selling my 1950 Jeep Willys. It runs great! Jeep is in excellent condition. It’s a 1950 so there are things that need to be done. The emergency brake doesn’t work, has some play in the steering and the speedometer is not accurate. Other than that, it fires right up and drives very well. I enjoyed goofing off in it with my son but he is college bound so it’s someone else’s turn. No scammers! If you can’t personally be here to buy it with cash then you can’t have it.”
No title and doesn’t run.
